Thanks Jorge, I'm learning more and more about Unraid, so i appreciate all the help. I ran a check, it came back pretty horrific, log file was silly-big. I'll not post it, but what I did do is repair with the correct flags for the XFS drive in question. The drive is now mounted and working again (for now) I've started a parity check, but I've also ordered another 8TB drive because im not confident that this drive is 100% ok.. I'll see what the outcome of the parity check is, and report back, but If all else fails i'll switch the drive asap. Cheers, Dan

No worries. Thanks itimpi, I appreciate your assistance.

OK slapped into maintenance mode, and ran a disk check. this is the outcome. Im guessing the drive is bad.... ?? check.txt

Appologies, I'm running a Parity check now, without the corrections. I'll let you know the outcome.

This isn't my issue. It's mounted by says incorrect file system. Not going to lie, after reading all that im 100% at this stage I don't want to corrupt the data, it's clearly on the disk. Not sure what to do. Thanks in advance. Dan

Ahhh ok i had no idea that was the case. Thanks for letting me know 🙂 I will do so, and report back.

So thanks to Jorge last week, I got myself sorted, but i rebooted my server (unplanned) and it's now showing the same issue with the Unmountable disk again. Anyone have a clue how i get it back online without formatting it this time? FYI the Bios is 100% on SATA not IDE. Cheers. Dan anas-diagnostics-20230302-2103.zip

Wooohooo! Data-Rebuild 2023-02-24, 13:20:17 (Friday) 8 TB 17 hr, 44 min, 15 sec 125.3 MB/s OK 0 All back up and running perfecrtly. The Motherboard did indeed have a dead battery. Switched it, reset the bios back to use ports 5 and 6 as SATA and not IDE as you mentioned, the drive formatted perfectly and 18 hours later, I've fully rebuilt. Thank you JorgeB. I appreciate you and the other mods. So glad that'sorted! **Phew!** 😅

Yeah I 100% did that. I will check again. Wonder if the Motherboard Battery isn't holding bios settings (would explain that!) If that's the issue im going to crack my head against a wall! I'll check it over now and report back.

I did before, see below:- However just to highlight it still doesn't work I'll do it all again. Hope that helps you understand why im currnetly stuck. Cheers Dan anas-diagnostics-20230223-1443.zip

It wont format, this is my issue. It says "format error", no matter what i've tried. Do i try formatting it from fdisk? (Never done that before on Unraid. Is it the same process?)

Correct, it has nothing important on it.
